Workplace : Lausanne-Dorigny (Geopolis)

**Your responsibilities**:
You will work on a research project funded by a Sinergia grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation (CRSII5_213601).

The project focuses on post-separation custody arrangements and their impact on children and will contribute to the identification of risk and resilience factors for child well-being after parental union dissolution in Switzerland. Four interdisciplinary studies will be conducted: 1) a longitudinal national panel survey to assess indicators of child well-being in three different custody arrangements (lone physical custody, shared physical custody and nuclear families ; 2) a psychological study to assess daily relational dynamics of parents and children within the three family structures; 3) a housing study to assess the experience and practices of housing and mobility patterns using in-depth ethnographic observation; and 4) a legal study to assess the arguments defining the legal decisions about children’s physical custody in legal documents.

**You will specifically work on the psychological study**. You will be supervised by Joëlle Darwiche and co-supervised by Laura Bernardi and will work on the “Long-term and short-term relational dynamics of conflict in the different custody arrangements”. To assess the longitudinal impact of the family relational dynamics, you will articulate data from the daily psychological study with data from the longitudinal panel survey.

Description of duties : You will complete a doctoral dissertation as part of the above project. You will collect, analyze and manage data related to the daily diary study; present your results in international conferences and publish them in scientific journals; and coordinate with the other PhD students of the Sinergia project. Please look at the requirements specification.

**Your qualifications**:
In order to complete our team, we are looking for someone with the following skills:

- Master of Science in Psychology or equivalent degree
- Highly motivated to do a doctoral dissertation on family dynamics in different family arrangements, as part of the Sinergia project
